Key clinical point: Compared with the conventional third line or higher lines of chemotherapy, tisagenlecleucel led to a 41% reduction in the risk for death in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Major finding: Patients receiving tisagenlecleucel vs conventional treatments had significantly longer median overall survival (11.7 vs 5.4 months; adjusted hazard ratio 0.59; P = .0035).
Study details: This study analyzed the published summary data of patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL treated with tisagenlecleucel in the JULIET study (n = 111) and the real-world individual patient data of those treated with conventional therapies in the first and second Samsung Medical Center-Lymphoma Cohort studies (n = 53).
Disclosures: This study was supported by grants from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, South Korea. S Park and JY Shin declared receiving grants from various sources.
